For nearly 5,000 years, people have lived in these canyons - longer than anyone has lived uninterrupted anywhere on the Colorado Plateau. In the place called Tseyi, their homes and images tell us their stories. Today, Navajo families make their homes, raise livestock, and farm the lands in these canyons. The National Park Service and Navajo Nation actively work together to manage park resources.

Where the pavement ends and the Best begins
To reach Canyon de Chelly and explore the site via a park ranger or authorized Navajo guide requires a full day tour. Overnight stays at the park facilities are primitive camping only. Portable toilets are available, however, only the food, drink and camp equipment brought to the site will be available. Motels and restaurants are available in the nearby town of Chinle, Arizona.
